Teh Tarik Place ; Bangsar

The Teh Tarik Place in Bangsar

I’ve always been eager to try the ‘Teh Tarik Place” out and
thanks to Food Ink, I got myself an invite to tryout their latest dishes!
HOORAH! Malaysian food at its best, and as a KL Tourism Ambassador, I cant wait
to get hands on with their food options to suggest to tourist who decide to try
out Malaysian Cuisine.

Main entrance to Teh Tarik Place

Interior impression

Since they are considered a franchise, this particular store
is located in Bangsar, which happens to be connected to Bangsar LRT station.
Super easy if you decide to travel by public transport. But before proceeding
to the food options, lets checkout the place. Personally, I really like their
decorations on the walls, and since I come from a background of architecture, I
personally get excited to see wooden tables and chairs. It looks like recycled
materials, which actually give a vintage feel to the surroundings.

A really cute caption that caught my eye

But I managed to get chatty with the owner of this franchise
whom was really friendly to let us know all the details that we need. First
off, he mentioned that he owns two outlets of the “Teh Tarik Place”, one in
Bangsar and the other is in Selayang. And guess what, only these two of the
branches has special dishes served, making it stand out from the rest!

KACANG POL SET // RM9.90

Kacang Pol Set

First up on the menu would be the “Kacang Pol Set”, a very
famous Johor dish. I know I remember my first time having this dish in Johor,
and it was definitely yums. If you haven’t tried Kacang Pol, well, you can
always drop by the “The Tarik Place” and give yourself a go at it! Its actually
similar to chili con carne, but with a twist of Malaysian recipe.

ASAM PEDAS SALMON // RM14.90

Asam Pedas Salmon

Next up was the Asam Pedas Salmon. This dish add’s character
because it’s a fusion of a Malaysian Dish. This is definitely my first time trying
Salmon cooked in Asam Pedas. Personally I still prefer my authentic ‘Pari’ (aka
Stingray) cooked in Asam Pedas , but if you love Salmon and up for a new
tasting experience, be sure to try this!

KEROPOK LEKOR RAINBOW // RM6.00

Keropok Lekor Rainbow

Keropok Lekor Rainbow is a really yummy snack to enjoy! It
taste like your usual Keropok Lekor, but with an additional of the secret
sauce. The dish is called Keropok Lekor rainbow because it looks really
colourful, with stripes of cheese, mayonnaise and bbq sauce. Alternatively, you
can still op to only have your preferredsauce too instead of having all of the sauce combined together.

SIZZLING YEE MEE // RM9.90

Sizzling Yee Mee

They also had sizzling Yee Mee which was my least favorite
among the rest. I love how the egg is still sizzling the minute you receive it,
but the sauce was a slight turn off cause it tasted rather salty to me. So if
you are tempted to order this, be sure that you request to have less salt in
this dish.

NASI LEMAK // RM5.50 – RM12.50

Nasi Lemak Basmati

Nasi Lemak Ayam Rendang

Nasi Lemak Sambal Strawberry

I was fascinated that they found an innovation in preparing
Nasi Lemak! They have 3 choices of Nasi Lemak, one is Nasik Lemak Biasa, the
Nasi Lemak Ayam Rendang and the highlight of it all, Nasi Lemak Sambal
Strawberry! The rice is a little dry but I would definitely recommend you to
try the Sambal Strawberry!

KUEY TEOW CANTONESE // RM9.50

Kuey Teow Cantonese

Other than that, they also had Kuey Teow Cantonese which had
their own recipe to enjoy. Rich with creamy sauce, making sure you enjoy your
Kuey Teow till the last drop. This was not bad, but not the best I’ve tried.

ROTI CANAI // RM2.50

And last but not least, this goes to those who are on a
tight budget. Presenting to you the “Roti Canai” from the “The Tarik Place”.
HAHA. Ironically the Roti Canai taste really good, which also comes with the
sides dishes. Gotta love Roti Canai if youre a true Malaysian ;)

VERDICT

Sneak peak of their menu

All I all, I think I can conclude that I would return for
their Kacang Pol cause it was soooo good! So if you love meat, you have to love
this pot of juicy tender con carne! And my least favorite would be the Sizzling
Yee Mee, but maybe its because im not a fan of salty food. It might taste
amazing to you, because yknow we all have different taste buds at the end of
the day.

EVENT SPACE AVAILABLE!

Event Space available for rent

Before I forget, please do take note that the space here is
also available for rent! They can block the space up for you for up to 2 hours
